Album Description

Craig Scott’s Lobotomy releases his second album I am Revolting, a genre defying allegory of our navigation of the digital age - as the lines between physical selves and digital anima become blurred & consensus reality crumbles as our individual reality tunnels and ideologies become increasingly radicalized. Within this uncomfortable junction of human and machine, live recordings of acoustic instruments and field recordings are pulled apart and transformed by Scott’s unique palette of homemade digital and analog technology before being reborn into new forms. Manipulating the listeners' perceptions of reality as it becomes overwhelmed by the illusion. Serving as a timely reminder that our maps of ourselves and our world are only that; the map is not the territory and we just nervous systems perpetually ordering chaos. The album was meticulously crafted over a period of 5 years during which Scott also taught himself audio electronics and designed/built all of the microphones and production equipment used to facilitate its Composition, Recording, Decomposition and Recomposition. As its name suggests I am Revolting is a work of duality, simultaneously vulnerable and the aggressor; beautiful and ugly; serious and humorous; complex and simple. It simultaneously encompases the collapse of consensus reality where everyone regardless of political ideology has been (in some sense) radicalised and feels they are pushing against the established order as well as the individuals encouraged self loathing of the our physical selves as we fail to live up to our projected highly curated digital anima.
